English: The final draft of your persuasive essay is due this Friday. There must be two copies of this draft printed out and ready to submit to Mrs. McDonnough for class on Friday. No exceptions. This means that no one can leave the room to print it out during class it must be done when you arrive.
Final drafts (2 printed copies) due tomorrow at the beginning of class. No one will be excused to go to the library to print. Here is the checklist I put on the Tsunami English blog.
